The Bayou City Art Festival featured artist for the Spring Festival is Karina Llergo, a mixed media artist from Chicago that strives to capture the dynamic energy of the human body and its soulful essence transforming figures into fluid entities, incorporating dance, air, and water to create an otherworldly likeness.
